Assou-Ekotto one of the best three left-backs
Benoit Assou-Ekotto was one of the best three left-backs in the Premier League says Harry Redknapp who has been disappointed with the performances of BAE since he arrived at QPR.
The 29 year-old Croatian Niko Kranjčar has also been a disappointment for the play-off contenders since his loan move from Dynamo Kiev.
“He’s been up and down. I don’t think he’s found the level he had at Tottenham.
“I was watching a bit of the 2010 season on Sky, it just happened to come on.
“It was Benoit playing for Tottenham, going down the left and crossing balls – he crossed one and funny enough Niko scored.
“For me he was in the best three left-backs in the Premier League when he was at Tottenham. I don’t think he’s quite reached the heights, but let’s hope that in the play-offs he’ll be a big player for us.
“I think he’s found the change between the Premier League and Championship difficult.”

Redknapp will have to decide whether his big game experience will be valuable at Wembley and hope he returns to form. Now 30 it sound as though he is not the player he was or is not motivated by Championship football, we know how laid back he is and views the game as simply a job.
Anyone not happy in their job doesn't give it 100% and doesn't produce their best, professional footballers are no different.
